A compact Fukurokuju figure made in Japan, cast with the crisp lines and quiet presence associated with Takaoka Dōki metalwork.
The form follows the familiar Fukurokuju iconography—an elderly sage with an elongated forehead—rendered here in zinc alloy with a refined, even finish suited to a small shelf, desk, or display cabinet.
About this piece
This sculpture is produced through metal casting using techniques associated with Takaoka Dōki, a long-established metalworking tradition from Takaoka, Japan, known for precise molds, subtle detailing, and controlled surface finishing. The model follows the conventional Fukurokuju type that developed through Japanese folk belief and the Seven Lucky Gods tradition, preserving a standardized, recognizable figure that workshops have reproduced for generations as part of Japan’s broader practice of making devotional and cultural metal objects.
Cultural note
In Japan, Fukurokuju is widely known as one of the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin) and is associated at a high level with longevity, good fortune, and wisdom—an image often encountered in homes, shops, and seasonal displays as part of everyday religious culture and folk custom. Figures like this are generally approached with a respectful, calm intention: placed neatly, kept above floor level when possible, and handled with clean hands. Even when collected as art or craft, many people treat such images as something to be regarded with consideration rather than as casual décor.
